Hi guys, and gals.

The heating in my BA falcon stopped working about a year ago and it still does not work. I've briefly consulted a mechanic and he reckons it's the electrics. Some friends said it could a sensor inside the dash.

Can anyone help or give an indication as to what it may be.

Thanks. :lol:

Probably a broken heater control shaft. Dash out job.

I'd rather freeze than cough up $900.

Ford need to get their act together.

Yeah but for that they take out the front seats, centre console, entire steering column and the whole dash. I reckon its not too bad value for money. I might do it myself eventually but it will take me the whole weekend. But it is a b**ch knowing that the parts that's broken is only worth $50.
